After encountering the Kree hero Captain Marvel, Carol Danvers was accidentally subjected to otherworldly radiation that transformed her into a superhuman warrior. Calling herself Ms. Marvel, she established herself as one of Marvel's most powerful and prominent heroes, both as a solo heroine and as a member of the Avengers. She has now adopted the mantle of Captain Marvel for herself.

She's a strong, independent woman who isn't afraid to stand up for what she believes in. She is someone who, despite being a woman, isn't afraid to stand up to her male superiors and tell them how it is. To me, she is Marvel's Wonder Woman, their greatest superheroine, and their prime example that you can have a female superhero who is popular enough to stand next to Captain America, Iron Man, and Spider-Man and not feel overshadowed. That's why I love Ms. Marvel.
